“No pasta. No bread. No caffeine,” a nutritionist recently told me when I went to see her about a healthy way to lose weight. “Instead of pasta, try spaghetti squash,” she continued. She had turned around, which was a good thing because I rolled my eyes at her. I walked out of her office secure in the knowledge that I was going to lose this weight battle because three things I cannot give up are pasta, bread, and caffeine.
